Hard Top / Soft Top Pics
Discussion
For those who like looking at other peoples cars (i know that sounds very Readers Wives) please see below some before and after pics of mine (car that is) now that i have finally had the hard top fitted.
I striped the hard top myself which is a massive achievement for someone as useless at DIY as me.Now that im an "expert" on striping im probably going to change the orange one to black.

looks awesome, I like the added red stripe
haha, i love the way people call that bloody stripe red. Its orange and the reason im changing it is because people keep saying its red.As an Evertonian i wouldnt have anything red near me, my house, my kids or my car.
Must be a true blue-blooded old-money product of superior breeding… where were you educated? Sounds like that chap on my train to London who wears his daily-wear wristwatch he hasn't cleaned for months… except it's a Patek annual calendar - that's more than £40,000 round his wrist, and yes I'm a watch geek and no, it's not fake.
I'm not a follower of association football but Everton… aren't they better known for rather tasty confectionery? As in the black and white mint things? If you're so hard-core why not stripe your Lotus white and black?
Or is my complete lack of 'football' knowledge showing through and Everton don't wear the white and black striped kit any more?
Your car looks fantastic with the hard top on. Love the colour, What is it?
One suggestion - Change the thin black stripes to match the red one on the rear wheel arch. Would look really good then. If you don't like the wheels you could always have them resprayed to match said stripe.

Hey OP - were you in Bham today?
I flashed a Lotus out onto Livery Street this morning in the same colour/stickers - made me smile anyway
Waheyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I flashed a Lotus out onto Livery Street this morning in the same colour/stickers - made me smile anyway
My first ever spotted.
I went down Livery Street on my way to Colmore Row, i go down there once a month.
Dont recall a flash though, sorry for not spotting you. * edited - In fact i do recall a flash, was you behind the car that was crawling up the St then stopped without indicating or flashing me out meaning i waited to get out for no reason until you very kindly let me out?

Is that Track V road in the pics? Top service from the guys there with my pride and joy. Nice pics, rare colour?
It certainly is TvR, i drove straight there the day i picked my car up to have the stripes put on.I had my previous car serviced thee and cant speak highly enough of the lads, the service and indeed the prices they charge.
Well worth a visit by anyone in the North West.
Its yet another special edition Elise, hopefully not too many others about of the same colour.
